A little bit about me

Hi everyone! My name is Katy Stevenson! I am an incoming senior at the University of Tennessee. I’m majoring in psychology with a minor in child and family studies. I have always loved working with kids and feel even more confident in my abilities as my education has increased greatly surrounding childhood development. My friends would describe me as responsible and empathetic!

Some of my favorite hobbies included reading, hiking, and arts & crafts! I love a clean environment, making me more than willing to help out around the house!

My best trait is my ability to listen and understand. I strive to make meaningful connections and build trust with others!
